Built to win and built to last, the Giro Empire SLX tips the scales at just 175g per shoe, setting a new standard in lightweight cycling footwear. Developed using feedback from Taylor Phinney of the BMC racing team, the Empire SLX features the Easton EC90 SLX2 high-modulus carbon outsole, boasting the stiffness to win a pro tour field sprint despite its ultra-low stack height and exceptionally low weight. New one-piece Evofiber SL Microfiber upper is water-repellent, highly breathable and conforms to your foot like a second skin for effective energy output. No more hot spots or point loading -- just a precise fit that stays supremely comfortable on the longest rides without the need for adjustment. Details like the replaceable heel pads, full titanium hardware and adjustable SuperNatural Fit Kit maximize performance without a weight penalty. You simply won't be able to find a more comfortable, lightweight, road-racing shoe with a direct connection to the pedals.
